The Olde Tavern — Restaurant in Wakefield

Over the past four months, we've been going out frequently to socialize and play pool. We've encountered this particular bar person before, and her approach has always been quite unprofessional (rough around the edges). Yesterday, during our visit, she yelled across the room in front of other customers, reacting to our occasional cheers when we made a good shot. Her extreme rudeness made one of our friends cry in embarrassment.

I was informed that the owner's daughter was sitting at the bar, so I approached her, apologized for our outburst of joy, and assured her we would keep it down. When I told the owner that one of our friends ended up crying due to the staff member's yelling, the owner said, "That's unfortunate. I believe we handled it fairly."

I told the owner that while we were willing to comply, due to the circumstances and lack of common decency, we would no longer be coming back to The Tavern. The owner responded, "That's great, we don't need your business!" Wow...

We will NOT be...

I absolutely love the carverys here,I moved out of the area & stopped going but I've moved back now & have started going every Sunday,the food is gorgeous the pie is beautiful loads of meat & the pastry is nice the meats are nice especially pork & crackling,the veg is really nice & fresh not stewed the stuffing 2 types is yum, roasties proper not frozen & the mash is lovely, its all really nice & you can put as much or as little as you want on, the only down side is you can't buy a child's portion,some children don't eat alot of dinner but you still have to pay adult prices so I'd say that's the only down part as some people can't afford to pay for adults meals for a child, i think if they changed that they would have even more customers,but regardless its always packed on a Sunday but your not waiting long for a table,the children's play area outside is nice it's not huge but it's nice for the...

I was not totally impressed by the Sunday roast, it is a very popular place, with plenty of room. The price was same for everyone, Adult, child above 5 yrs and Seniors. We had 3 kids and our elderly mother who eats very little. Maybe smaller meals and reduce the price. We did not leave the leftover meat but took it home for the cat. It lasted 3 days. The quantity of meat you get is very good but far too much for us. You can help yourself to the veg. The cauli and broccolli was too hard for us but some like it that way. There is a good variety of veg but only a choice if Beef or Pork when we went. The yorkshire puds were burnt and there were no roast potatoes but fried little potato cubes. All in all it is worth the 12.99 you pay if you can...
